This is a follow-up to single-column revtex4-1 adds a page break after the title section

I was looking to make the body come right after the abstract. But the solution posted there (insert the option [notitlepage] to the document class) does not solve the issue for me: I also need to add the options

[aip, preprint, jmp]

or at least [preprint] option and maybe this interferes. I edit my document in TeXmacs, under TeX Live 2011 Version 0.92 (0.92), mac 5.8.

Could you help, or do you think this is normal?

  • This is the correct behaviour as far as I know. Preprints are meant to be nicely spaced out so that notes can be written on them. – qubyte Jan 27 '12 at 07:44
  • Out of interest, why is the preprint option necessary? – qubyte Jan 27 '12 at 08:02
  • @MarkS.Everitt : hi Mark, when submitting for the first time to an American Physics Society's journal (j. math. physics my case), for the review purpose, they require a preprint option. That's what they say in their intructions/guides. But thanks for your opinion. I will submit even with such a behaviour if I don't get other answers soon. – Victor Jan 27 '12 at 08:14
  • Do not alter this behaviour. That's exactly as they want it. This is for review purposes. In any case, they will re-typeset the document. – qubyte Jan 27 '12 at 09:48
  • @MarkS.Everitt Please turn your comment into an answer. – lockstep Mar 03 '12 at 21:59

This is the correct behaviour as far as I know. Preprints are meant to be nicely spaced out so that notes can be written on them. Unless you have a very good reason to change this behaviour, I strongly advise you to keep it as it is. It's exactly as they want it. This is for review purposes. In any case, they will re-typeset the document.
